In a Letter to the Intelligencer Journal / New Era editor, Mr. Ron Simmons of Ephrata gave some very wise advice:
“I understand two Franklin & Marshall staffers did a survey (2010) in which 80 percent of Pennsylvanians favor the legalization of pot for medicinal use. There have been so many documented positive effects reported from medicinal use of pot.
“Let’s pursue this type of legalization so as to perhaps get some support from our more conservative friends. This would greatly improve the quality of life for those suffering from some forms of illness and disease.”
